Created At

The Created At field automatically records the date and time when a record was created. It is filled by the system at the moment the record is first saved and cannot be edited manually.

How to Add

  1. Open a table and click Fields in the top bar.
  2. Click + Add existing field.
  3. Select Created at from the list.
  4. Click Save.

Capabilities

  • Automatically capture the timestamp when a record is created
  • Display creation date and time in the table and on the record view
  • Use the field in filters, sorts, and automations based on when records were created

Use Cases and Examples

Sorting by newest entries — Sort a table by Created At to always see the most recently added records at the top.

Time-based automations — Trigger an automation when a record has been created for more than X days without being updated, using Created At as the reference point.

Keep in Mind

  • The field is read-only and cannot be changed after the record is created.
  • The timestamp reflects the server time at the moment of creation, not the user's local time.
  • Created At does not update if the record is edited. For tracking the last modification time, use the Updated At field.

FAQ

1- Can I manually set the Created At value?

No. It is set automatically by the system when the record is first saved and cannot be edited.

2- Is the timestamp in my local timezone?

The display may adjust to your timezone depending on your settings, but the value is stored in server time.
